Teeth-In-An-Hour

TEETH-IN-AN-HOUR is a revolutionary concept providing patients with fully functioning teeth on dental implants in a single procedure that takes about an hour. Esta tecnología fue desarrollada por Nobel Biocare y utiliza la colaboración entre el médico restaurador y el cirujano oral. This merging of knowledge and experience achieves not only increased safety, but also a more precise implant placement. Además, the fabrication of a final prosthesis is completed prior to the surgery. The computer-guided implant surgery is done in an arthroscopic fashion without requiring any flap reflection. This benefits the patient in that there is less postoperative discomfort, less swelling, and less bruising. Patients can often resume their normal activities the next day.

The process begins when a CAT scan is taken of the patient’s jaw bone. Esta tomografía computarizada permite la generación de un modelo tridimensional del hueso de la mandíbula que luego se puede utilizar con un software de realidad virtual para planificar la colocación del implante sin la presencia del paciente. The results are a more accurate implant placement and less chair time for the patient.
